Thanks for the feed back Jimmy.

Update on the Mora Model 150 fillet knife now that garden season is here..... I took the Mora 150 out of the kitchen drawer and it was pretty sharp but all beat up from use and the dishwasher. About 10 mins on the KME knife sharpener with the Xtra Coarse diamond stone only for a ultra sharp ragged edge for corn processing duty......

The wife normally uses cheap RADA knives in the kitchen and I also sharpened two of those up just like always when it is time to cut all the garden sweet corn off the cob, cooked in a 7.5qt Lodge porcelain coated dutch oven, then frozen in qt cups for winter time treats with the garden green beans. She cut about 2 dozen ears off the cob with the RADA's, then using the edge of the blade at 90 degrees to the cob scraped the, "milk " out of the cobs for cream style corn. Been doing it that way for generations here in the South for, "Fried Corn ".

I asked her, "Why don't you try the Mora 150 since it has a nice comfy rubber handle and use the serrations on the back to, "milk ", the cobs and keep the knife razor sharp. These serrations are normally used for scraping scales off fish but they are the ticket for milking those corn cobs folks !!!

Long story short.... the RADA's have been retired from corn processing now and the Mora 150 was still peeling hair from my arm after cutting 12 dozen ears of corn off the cob ! I am totally sold on the Mora story..... may not be the prettiest or fanciest knife but for the $$$ the steel cannot be beat ! Unbelievable edge holding quality.

Chuck, PM sent..... I want a few more of these 150's for the kitchen. This will now be our go to knives for all game and garden processing duties.
